Kathy Grace, on April 4th, 2011

Represent the Port Townsend Sailing Association on Opening Day on the Port Townsend Bay this year. The boat parade will begin at 12:45 after the ferry leaves the dock and will travel the city shoreline to the Northwest Maritime Center where Rob Sanderson will announce the boats as they pass by. The Port Townsend Yacht Club sponsors the event, which is open to all boats, power, sail, and oar-powered. The Point Wilson Sail and Power Squadron, Coast Guard, and rowing club, as well as the Yacht Club, will all be attending.

The P.T.Yacht club needs to know who is planning to attend. Please RSVP to Jim Quandt at 379-0553 or jim.quandt@gmail.com before April 19th and plan to attend the participants’ meeting at the yacht club on Wednesday April 27th from 6:30 -8pm to get the details. If you are a wooden boat attending this event, you can stay over and participate in the Wooden Boat Series Race # 2 afterwards at approximately 1:30.
